Mino Raiola, the outspoken agent of the French midfielder, said his client would "like to come back to Juventus" and described Italy as being "like home" for Pogba, according to quotes tweeted by Fabrizio Romano.

The representative suggested the possibility of Pogba heading back to Juventus would be explored after Euro 2020 but admitted it would be tricky to negotiate an exit from Manchester United if they're "in a difficult situation."

Raiola: “Pogba to Juventus? Italy is like home for Paul. He’d like to come back to Juventus but we’ll see what will happen after the Euros. Pogba wants to play at the best level but he can’t escape by Man United if they’re in a difficult situation...” 🛑 #MUFC#Juve#Pogba

Raiola discussed Pogba's future in January, saying he expects his "players to be happy" and that it's his job to resolve the situation if they aren't.

Pogba, who turns 27 next month, has started only five Premier League matches this season due to a persistent ankle problem and an illness. His repeated absences from the first-team fold have fueled speculation that he is again seeking a transfer.

Last summer, the World Cup winner expressed a desire to pursue "a new challenge somewhere else" and Raiola stated on numerous occasions he was trying to broker a move for Pogba.
